5 Cool Gift Ideas for Bookworms

Being a bookworm myself, I often find myself dreaming of book-related gifts that I'd love to receive. Similarly, when I have to pick such a gift for a friend, I get carried away with the abundance of options! 😍 In this post I gathered my favorite ideas for book-related gifts... So, if you were wondering what gift to give to your book-loving friend (other than a book that is), take a look at the options below...

So without further ado... Let's go on...

1. Scented candle: An easy, simple choice that you can't go wrong with. Chances are your bookworm friend loves the smell of old books, libraries, or parchment. Even if they don't care about those scents, they may still have another one they like or another particular candle they burn as they read. It could even be unrelated to books (vanilla, cinnamon, apple, or anything else they like) that they have somehow connected with their reading, or you could even introduce them to an entirely new scent you think they'll enjoy. Even if they don't use candles yet, you could still introduce them to this new routine by giving them this gift, so, as I said, you can't lose.

2. Book stamp: I had no idea these existed up until recently when I saw them on a YouTube video and I instantly fell in love with them. You can find a book stamp in all different designs and sizes. And, of course, in a variety of different prices to match your budget. They can be personalized, they are unique, they are memorable and, certainly, your book loving friend will love them!

3. Book-related mug: This is another simple gift that never fails. Most bookworms love to have a drink while reading, whether that is coffee, tea, or something else. Whatever it is, one thing is certain; your friend will enjoy it so much more in a book-related mug.

4. Bookmarks: Small, simple, and cheap, yet they can be unique and original as any other gift. Even though most bookworms are notorious for using other irrelevant objects as bookmarks, they'll certainly love this gift and, hopefully, use it, against their core instincts. A few years ago, a friend of mine gave me as a gift a metallic bookmark that had engraved on it the 50 books you should read before you die and I instantly loved it! To this day it's one of my favorite things!
